Redesigned the input dispatcher's ANR timeout mechanism so it is much
closer to Froyo's policy. ANR is only ever signalled if the dispatcher
is waiting on a window to finish processing its previous event(s) and
there is new pending input.
In the old code, we tracked the dispatch timeout separately for each
input channel. This was somewhat complicated and also resulted in the
situation where applications could ANR long after the user had pushed
them into the background.

As part of this change, consolidated and cleaned up the Looper API so
that there are fewer distinctions between the NDK and non-NDK declarations
(no need for two callback types, etc.).
Removed the dependence on specific constants from sys/poll.h such as
POLLIN. Instead looper.h defines events like LOOPER_EVENT_INPUT for
the events that it supports. That should help make any future
under-the-hood implementation changes easier.
Fixed a couple of compiler warnings along the way.

There are 16 events logged in the event log:
SF_APP_DEQUEUE_BEFORE
SF_APP_DEQUEUE_AFTER
SF_APP_LOCK_BEFORE
SF_APP_LOCK_AFTER
SF_APP_QUEUE
SF_REPAINT
SF_COMPOSITION_COMPLETE
SF_UNLOCK_CLIENTS

SF_FB_POST_BEFORE
SF_FB_POST_AFTER
SF_FB_DEQUEUE_BEFORE
SF_FB_DEQUEUE_AFTER
SF_FB_LOCK_BEFORE

all events log the buffer conserned and a timestamp in microseconds.
by default the logging is not enabled, to turn it on:
adb shell service call SurfaceFlinger 1006 i31 1
adb shell setprop debug.graphic_log 1
The effect is immediate in SurfaceFlinger, but applications need to be
restarted.

This change is essentially a rewrite of the main input dispatcher loop
with the target identification folded in. Since the input dispatcher now
has all of the window state, it can make better decisions about
when to ANR.
Added a .5 second deadline for processing app switch keys. This behavior
predates Gingerbread but had not previously been ported.
Fixed some timing inaccuracies in the ANR accounting that could cause
applications to ANR sooner than they should have.
Added a mechanism for tracking key and motion events that have been
dispatched to a window so that appropriate cancelation events can be
synthesized when recovering from ANR. This change helps to keep
applications in sync so they don't end up with stuck buttons upon
recovery from ANRs.
Added more comments to describe the tricky parts of PollLoop.
Change-Id: I13dffca27acb436fc383980db536abc4d8b9e6f1
Added the MotionEvent.FLAG_WINDOW_IS_OBSCURED flag which is set by the
input manager whenever another visible window is partly or wholly obscured
the target of a touch event so that applications can filter touches
accordingly.
Added a "filterTouchesWhenObscured" attribute to View which can be used to
enable filtering of touches when the view's window is obscured.

Improved pointer location to show new coordinates and capabilities.
Optimized pointer location display and formatting to avoid allocating large

The code now takes into account the time when the event was generated.

On single-touch devices, pointer up/down is signalled by a BTN_TOUCH
key event. Previously we handled BTN_TOUCH immediately but some drivers
may produce the sequence BTN_TOUCH, ABS_X, ABS_Y, SYN_REPORT on pointer down
which caused us to emit a bad initial pointer down location.
Now we wait for SYN_REPORT before reporting the up or down.
On multi-touch devices, pointer up can be signalled by as little as
the sequence SYN_MT_REPORT, SYN_REPORT. This change ensures that we
handle this case.
Added support for reading ABS_MT_PRESSURE when available.
Corrected mapping of touchMajor/touchMinor on single touch devices.
Minor code cleanup.

Sometimes the wrong fd was accessed when the device was addressed
by device id.
The earlier implementation assumed that two arrays were in sync
but one of them was compacted when devices were removed. Instead
of that dependency the device now keeps track of it's file descriptor.
Change-Id: Ib0f320603aafb07ded354bc3687de9759c9068f2
Previously, the input dispatcher assumed that the input channel's
receive pipe file descriptor was a sufficiently unique identifier for
looking up input channels in its various tables. However, it can happen
that an input channel is disposed and then a new input channel is
immediately created that reuses the same file descriptor. Ordinarily
this is not a problem, however there is a small opportunity for a race
to arise in InputQueue.
When InputQueue receives an input event from the dispatcher, it
generates a finishedToken that encodes the channel's receive pipe fd,
and a sequence number. The finishedToken is used by the ViewRoot
as a handle for the event so that it can tell the InputQueue when
the event has finished being processed.
Here is the race:
1. InputQueue receives an input event, assigns a new finishedToken.
2. ViewRoot begins processing the input event.
3. During processing, ViewRoot unregisters the InputChannel.
4. A new InputChannel is created and is registered with the Input Queue.
This InputChannel happens to have the same receive pipe fd as
the one previously registered.
5. ViewRoot tells the InputQueue that it has finished processing the
input event, passing along the original finishedToken.
6. InputQueue throws an exception because the finishedToken's receive
pipe fd is registered but the sequence number is incorrect so it
assumes that the client has called finish spuriously.
The fix is to include a unique connection id within the finishedToken so
that the InputQueue can accurately confirm that the token belongs to
the currently registered InputChannel rather than to an old one that
happened to have the same receive pipe fd. When it notices this, it
ignores the spurious finish.
I've also made a couple of other small changes to avoid similar races
elsewhere.
This patch set also includes a fix to synthesize a finished signal
when the input channel is unregistered on the client side to
help keep the server and client in sync.

Refactored the input reader so that each raw input protocol is handled

pertaining to keyboard, trackballs, touchscreens, switches and other

This significantly re-works the native key dispatching code to
allow events to be pre-dispatched to the current IME before
being processed by native code. It introduces one new public
API, which must be called after retrieving an event if the app
wishes for it to be pre-dispatched.
Currently the native code will only do pre-dispatching of
system keys, to avoid significant overhead for gaming input.
This should be improved to be smarted, filtering for only
keys that the IME is interested in. Unfortunately IMEs don't
currently provide this information. :p

And also:
- APIs to show and hide the IME, and control its interaction with the app.
- APIs to tell the app when its window resizes and needs to be redrawn.
- API to tell the app the content rectangle of its window (to layout
around the IME or status bar).
There is still a problem with IME interaction -- we need a way for the
app to deliver events to the IME before it handles them, so that for
example the back key will close the IME instead of finishing the app.

This factors out the boiler-plate code from the sample
app to a common glue code that can be used for everyone
writing this style of app: a dedicated app thread that
takes care of waiting for events and processing them.
As part of doing this, ALooper has a new facility to allow
registration of fds that cause ALooper_pollOnce() to return
the fd that has data, allowing the app to drive the loop
without callbacks. Hopefully this makes some people feel better. :)
Also do some other cleanup of the ALooper API, plus some
actual documentation.

The old dispatch mechanism has been left in place and continues to
be used by default for now. To enable native input dispatch,
edit the ENABLE_NATIVE_DISPATCH constant in WindowManagerPolicy.
Includes part of the new input event NDK API. Some details TBD.
To wire up input dispatch, as the ViewRoot adds a window to the
window session it receives an InputChannel object as an output
argument. The InputChannel encapsulates the file descriptors for a
shared memory region and two pipe end-points. The ViewRoot then
provides the InputChannel to the InputQueue. Behind the
scenes, InputQueue simply attaches handlers to the native PollLoop object
that underlies the MessageQueue. This way MessageQueue doesn't need
to know anything about input dispatch per-se, it just exposes (in native
code) a PollLoop that other components can use to monitor file descriptor
state changes.
There can be zero or more targets for any given input event. Each
input target is specified by its input channel and some parameters
including flags, an X/Y coordinate offset, and the dispatch timeout.
An input target can request either synchronous dispatch (for foreground apps)
or asynchronous dispatch (fire-and-forget for wallpapers and "outside"
targets). Currently, finding the appropriate input targets for an event
requires a call back into the WindowManagerServer from native code.
In the future this will be refactored to avoid most of these callbacks
except as required to handle pending focus transitions.
End-to-end event dispatch mostly works!
To do: event injection, rate limiting, ANRs, testing, optimization, etc.

We've gotten lucky to date: the previous calculation of bitmask array
sizes, (maxval+1)/8 only works properly when 'maxval' is one less than

Fix failure to open AVRCP input device due to EPERM.
Sleep for 100us and try to open the input device again if it fails, with a
maximum of 10 attempts.
We need the retry logic because setting permissions on a new input device is
racy. The init process watches for new input device (via uevent) and sets the
permission on them in devices.c:make_device(). However at the same time
EventHub.cpp watches for new input devices from the system_server process, and
immediately tries to open them. I can't see a simple way to avoid this race
condition.
As best as I can tell this race condition has always exisited.
There must have been some timing change that happened recently that causes us
to hit this race condition much more often. See repro notes in referenced bug.
Bug: 2375632
Surface::validate() could sometimes dereference a null pointer before checking it wasn't null.
This will prevent the application to crash when given bad parameters or used incorrectly.
However, the bug above probably has another cause.
we lost the concept of vertical stride when moving video playback to EGLImage.
Here we bring it back in a somewhat hacky-way that will work only for the
softgl/mdp backend.
Use EGLImageKHR instead of copybit directly.
We now have the basis to use streaming YUV textures (well, in fact
we already are). When/if we use the GPU instead of the MDP we'll
need to make sure it supports the appropriate YUV format.
Also make sure we compile if EGL_ANDROID_image_native_buffer is not supported
when running out of memory, a null handle is returned but the error code may not be set.
In that case we need to return NO_MEMORY instead of NO_ERROR, so that the calling code
won't try to dereference the null pointer.
This also fixes [2152536] ANR in browser
When SF is enqueuing buffers faster than SF dequeues them.
The update flag in SF is not counted and under some situations SF will only
dequeue the first buffer. The state at this point is not technically
corrupted, it's valid, but just delayed by one buffer.
In the case of the Browser ANR, because the last enqueued buffer was delayed
the resizing of the current buffer couldn't happen.
The system would always fall back onto its feet if anything -else- in
tried to draw, because the "late" buffer would be picked up then.
A window is created and the browser is about to render into it the
very first time, at that point it does an IPC to SF to request a new
buffer. Meanwhile, the window manager removes that window from the
list and the shared memory block it uses is marked as invalid.
However, at that point, another window is created and is given the
same index (that just go freed), but a different identity and resets
the "invalid" bit in the shared block. When we go back to the buffer
allocation code, we're stuck because the surface we're allocating for
is gone and we don't detect it's invalid because the invalid bit has
been reset.
It is not sufficient to check for the invalid bit, I should
also check that identities match.
When EGLImage extension is not available, SurfaceFlinger will fallback to using
glTexImage2D and glTexSubImage2D instead, which requires 50% more memory and an
extra copy. However this code path has never been exercised and had some bugs
which this patch fix.
Mainly the scale factor wasn't computed right when falling back on glDrawElements.
We also fallback to this mode of operation if a buffer doesn't have the adequate
usage bits for EGLImage usage.
This changes only code that is currently not executed. Some refactoring was needed to
keep the change clean. This doesn't change anything functionaly.
The ANR is caused by SurfaceFlinger waiting for buffers of a removed surface to become availlable.
When it is removed from the current list, a Surface is marked as NO_INIT, which causes SF to return
immediately in the above case. For some reason, the surface here wasn't marked as NO_INIT.
This change makes the code more robust by always (irregadless or errors) setting the NO_INIT status
in all code paths where a surface is removed from the list.
Additionaly added more information in the logs, should this happen again.
a new method, compostionComplete() is added to the framebuffer hal, it is used by surfaceflinger to signal the driver that the composition is complete, BEFORE it releases its client. This gives a chance to the driver to
Take 2. We needed to check that the usage flags are "good enough" as opposed to "the same".

fix [2068105] implement queueBuffer/lockBuffer/dequeueBuffer properly
For some reason we don't like to have "-lpthread" globally -- it's a no-op
on device builds, but required for many host tools and all sim binaries --
so adding the use of pthread calls requires adding the library explicitly.
Rewrote SurfaceFlinger's buffer management from the ground-up.
The design now support an arbitrary number of buffers per surface, however the current implementation is limited to four. Currently only 2 buffers are used in practice.
The main new feature is to be able to dequeue all buffers at once (very important when there are only two).
A client can dequeue all buffers until there are none available, it can lock all buffers except the last one that is used for composition. The client will block then, until a new buffer is enqueued.
The current implementation requires that buffers are locked in the same order they are dequeued and enqueued in the same order they are locked. Only one buffer can be locked at a time.
eg. Allowed sequence: DQ, DQ, LOCK, Q, LOCK, Q
eg. Forbidden sequence: DQ, DQ, LOCK, LOCK, Q, Q
This addresses a few parts of the bug:
- There was a small issue in the window manager where we could show a window
too early before the transition animation starts, which was introduced
by the recent wallpaper work. This was the cause of the flicker when
starting the dialer for the first time.
- There was a much larger problem that has existing forever where moving
an application token to the front or back was not synchronized with the
application animation transaction. This was the cause of the flicker
when hanging up (now that the in-call screen moves to the back instead
of closing and we always have a wallpaper visible). The approach to
solving this is to have the window manager go ahead and move the app
tokens (it must in order to keep in sync with the activity manager), but
to delay the actual window movement: perform the movement to front when
the animation starts, and to back when it ends. Actually, when the
animation ends, we just go and completely rebuild the window list to
ensure it is correct, because there can be ways people can add windows
while in this intermediate state where they could end up at the wrong
place once we do the delayed movement to the front or back. And it is
simply reasuring to know that every time we finish a full app transition,
we re-evaluate the world and put everything in its proper place.
Also included in this change are a few little tweaks to the input system,
to perform better logging, and completely ignore input devices that do not
have any of our input classes. There is also a little cleanup of evaluating
configuration changes to not do more work than needed when an input
devices appears or disappears, and to only log a config change message when
the config is truly changing.

what happened is that the efective pixel format is calculated by SF but Surface nevew had access to it directly.
in particular this caused query(FORMAT) to return the requested format instead of the effective format.
This change makes SurfaceHolder.setType(GPU) obsolete (it's now ignored).
Added an API to android_native_window_t to allow extending the functionality without ever breaking binary compatibility. This is used to implement the new set_usage() API. This API needs to be called by software renderers because the default is to use usage flags suitable for h/w.
* changes:
update most gl tests to use EGLUtils
added two EGL helpers for selecting a config matching a certain pixelformat or native window type
added NATIVE_WINDOW_FORMAT attribute to android_native_window_t
The major things going on here:
- The MotionEvent API is now extended to included "pointer ID" information, for
applications to keep track of individual fingers as they move up and down.
PointerLocation has been updated to take advantage of this.
- The input system now has logic to generate MotionEvents with the new ID
information, synthesizing an identifier as new points are down and trying to
keep pointer ids consistent across events by looking at the distance between
the last and next set of pointers.
- We now support the new multitouch driver protocol, and will use that instead
of the old one if it is available. We do NOT use any finger id information
coming from the driver, but always synthesize pointer ids in user space.
(This is simply because we don't yet have a driver reporting this information
from which to base an implementation on.)
- Increase maximum number of fingers to 10. This code has only been used
with a driver that reports up to 2, so no idea how more will actually work.
- Oh and the input system can now detect and report physical DPAD devices.
there was several issues:
- when a surface was made non-current, the last frame wasn't shown and the buffer could stay locked
- when a surface was made current the 2nd time, it would not dequeue a new buffer
now, queue/dequeue are done when the surface is made current.
for this to work, a new query() hook had to be added on android_native_window_t, it allows to retrieve some attributes of a window (currently only width and height).
This will be used to avoid unnecessarily listening to data from sensors
that function as event devices.

generated rather than a touch event.
This also includes a number of tweaks to the absolute controller
processing to make things work better on the new screens. For
example, we now reject down events outside of the display area.
Still left to be done is the ability to cancel a key down event,
so the user can slide up from the virtual keys to the touch screen
without causing a virtual key to execute.
